+ <p>The &os; GNOME Team maintains the GNOME, MATE, and
+ CINNAMON desktop environments and graphical user interfaces for
+ &os;. GNOME 3 is part of the GNU Project. MATE is a fork of
+ the GNOME 2 desktop. CINNAMON is a desktop environment using
+ GNOME 3 technologies but with a GNOME 2 look and feel.</p>
+
+ <p>At the end of this quarter we updated GNOME and CINNAMON
+ to the latest versions on their branches, 3.14 and 2.4,
+ respectively.</p>
+
+ <p>GNOME 3.16 was released February 25th; we ported it to
+ &os;. There are still some showstopper problems that showed up.
+ During testing of the current versions of the 3.16 ports a bug
+ in pkg was uncovered in the multiple repository support, and
+ swiftly fixed in pkg 1.4.99.15.</p>
+
+ <p>For the GNOME 3.18 cycle we going to work closely with
+ the x11 team on porting libinput and testing Wayland. When that
+ is done we need to see if we want to enable Wayland for our
+ stable releases and we probably need XWayland from
+ <tt>xorg-server</tt> 1.16+ to support X applications. The
+ estimate is that Wayland arriving in ports will have to wait
+ until 8.4-Release is EOL.</p>
